Electron mobility of ZnO strongly varies with temperature and has a maximum of ~2000 cm2/(V·s) at 80 K. Data on hole mobility are scarce with values in the range 5 30 cm2/(V·s).
Although, similar studies are still scarce, correlation values comparing gene/protein expression levels in several systems were very low [ 34], and varied with the protein relative abundance and their half-life time.
